Chapter 56

Olivia was surprised to see Stephanie..

“Stephanie, you’re here?” Olivia asked.

Stephanie smiled. “Wes, I came to see Christie.”

Olivis approached and looked at the girl lying in bed with a healthy complexion. “Me too. Christie will wake up in a few days, and I’m really happy. Dr. Summer is really amazing. I admire her so much.”

Stephanie sneered inwardly and thought, ‘Everyone knows that you loathe her!

Then, Stephanie stood up and said, “You must have a great relationship with Christie. Despite your injuries, you still care about her.”

Olivia sniffled. “Christie and I grew up together. We have a deep bond. I never imagined that she would end up like this after falling down the stairs three years ago. It’s heartbreaking. Christie used to be a lovely girl that everyone adored.”

Stephanie patted her shoulder. “Don’t worry. In less than three days, Christie will wake up. Let’s leave and let her rest.”

Olivia nodded, a hint of resentment flickering in her eyes, but it vanished in an instant

After leaving the room, Olivia went back to her bedroom.

Looking at the red pill in her palm, her expression darkened, her eyes gleaming with malice.

“Christina must not wake up, or everything will be ruined!” she exclaimed inwardly.

Stephanie was about to return to her bedroom when she received a message from Vincent.

The message read: [I’m going to the study to handle some things. You can go back and have a rest first.]

Vincent hadn’t eaten much at night, so Stephanie decided to prepare some chicken salad for him.

When she

to the kitchen, she ran into Sophia.

“Sophia, I was just looking for you,” said Stephanie.

“Mrs. Fletcher, what can I do for you?” Sophia asked.

Stephanie whispered something to Sophia. Sophia nodded and replied, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Fletcher. Are you going to cook?”

“Yes, Vincent didn’t eat much tonight, so I want to cook for him,” Stephanie answered.

Sophia smiled. “Mr. Fletcher is fortunate to have married you. Let me help you.”

Stephanie agreed with a smile. “Please help me chop the tomatoes. I’ll handle the chicken.”

“Understood, Sophia replied.

Sophia watched Stephanie’s skillful knife work and knew she wasn’t just putting on airs. Her knife skills were impressive.

When Stephanie stir-fried the chicken strips, the kitchen quickly became filled with the aroma of chicken.

Later, she added the chicken strips to a delicate and bomutifed porcelain bodied with vegetables and tomatoes, put a spoon on the tray, and took it to The stuck on the third Rent

The person on the rise and exclaimed, “You’re actually smiling

Stephanie understood some Pantelesian, so when she heard the surprise in the other person’s voice, she smiled.

Vincent frowned, saying he had something to attend to, and ended the conversation. Then, he turned off the webcam, closed the laptop, and pushed itnovelbin

“Did you prepare chicken salad for me?” Vincent pared at her.

Stephanie put the tray in front of him and sat on his lap naturally.

She picked up the bowl, scooped up a spoonful, and fed it to him. “Try the chicken alfredo pasta I made.”

“You should eat more then,” she suggest

Soon, the bowl was empty

Stephanie placed the bowl and spoon on the tray. “Are you full?”

Vincent caressed her waist. “What if I’m not full?”

“If you’re not, there’s still some left. I’ll serve it to you,” she said, preparing to get up.

Suddenly, Vincent held her waist firmly. “What I need now is not food.”

Seeing his handsome face approaching her, Stephanie asked, “What do you want then?”

I want you.” he replied

Vincent’s lips pressed against her pink lips, gently sucking and kissing, their warm breaths mingling together.

Stephanie opened her mouth slightly, and his tongue slipped inside.

In a daze, she wrapped her arms around his neck.

Their moaning, reverberated in the study.

Stephanie felt dizzy and weak.

As their lips parted, Vincent noticed that Stephanie’s lips were slightly open and her eyes were closed. She seemed to have fallen asleep.

He chuckled helplessly, realizing that she was exhausted.

Carrying Stephanie back to the bedroom, Vincent gently placed her on the bed,

After washing up in the bathroom, he lay dowy beside her, reaching out to turn off the bedside lamp.

He held her in his arms and fell asleep together,

In the next two days, Stephanie went to the hospital during the day and returned to Tranquil Garden at night.

Avoiding the gaze of others, Sophia sneaked into Vincent’s bedroom to find Stephanie. “Mrs. Fletcher, nothing happened these past two days, İs someone really going to make a nsive?”

Stephanie gave her a reassuring look. “Of course, as long as you cooperate well.”

“Okay.” Sophia’s eyes darted around nervously, as if they were spies having a secret meeting, causing Stephanie to chuckle.

“What are you laughing at?” A man’s voice sounded behind her.

Stephanie closed the bedroom door and walked over to Vincent. She placed her hands on the wheelchair and leaned down. “I’m laughing because someone’s going to be in deep trouble tonight.”

“Are you sure?” Vincent asked.

Stephanie blinked. “Didn’t I tell you during the day that there’s a high probability Christie will wake up tomorrow? She’ll definitely take action tonight.”

“Can you tell my fortune? I’ve been quite unlucky these past two days,” Vincent joked.

“What happened?” Stephanie was surprised.

Vincent pulled her arm and made her sit on his lap. “Every night, there’s a succubus tempting me, but she doesn’t take responsibility for it.”

Pursing her lips, Stephanie murmured, “I was too tired and fell asleep.”

“Will you be tired tonight?” Vincent asked.

Stephanie looked into his amber-colored eyes and shook her head with a hint of shyness, “No.”

Immediately, Vincent rose from the wheelchair, carrying her to the bed.

The two of them kissed each other affectionately until she felt her back on the soft mattress.

Vincent gulped and asked, “Stephie, can we do it?”

Embarrassed and annoyed, Stephanie tilted her head to one side. Do you still need to ask? How am I supposed to answer?”

Vincent chuckled. “My bad.”

Meanwhile, a figure sneaked into Christina’s bedroom.

Under the moonlight, the person stealthily approached the bed.

They pressed a red pill into the mouth of the person lying on the bed and attempted to force the lips open.

Suddenly, the person on the bed turned their head, spat the pill out, and bit down hard on the intruder’s finger.

The next second, the bedroom lit up,

The sneaky person was none other than Olivia.

Olivia realized that the person on the bed was not Christina or Stephanie, but Sophia.
